geotechnical monitoring

Geotechnical monitoring involves observing and measuring ground and soil conditions around construction sites or slopes to ensure safety and stability. Using tools like sensors and surveys, engineers track factors like soil movement, pressure, and settlement over time. This helps identify potential issues early, allowing for timely interventions to prevent failures or accidents. It’s an essential part of managing projects involving earthworks, foundations, tunnels, or dams, ensuring that structures are built on stable ground and remain safe throughout their lifespan.
